(Chorus) I am not a crook. 2X I was slightly framed. I'm pretty sure my cabinet was out to get me. I swear on my mother's grave, I swear on my father's grave, I swear on Chevy and Ford and American Oil. That (Chorus) My brother died in Korea My brother died in Vietnam My brother died in the Cold War My brother avoided the draft. (Chorus) I stand for justice and equality. Ask anyone I know and you will see. I've made mistakes and I'm a liar and a cheat. I don't know how this world works. But I am not a crook.

March 02:13
The air that filled these balloons formed from stale words that we spoke. Shed your clothes. It's just not plausible to hide in hoods and false stops, when everything and me and you are in bloom. So I'll stab at redemption til' it pops and lets us go home, well I'm home. Who's to say about production value? I'm saying what I want to say, it's been this way since May. But it was March and I was cold I held onto the shaky value that I could grow old in this house. And nothing is the same. And nothing can be the same When it's March.

St.Mary's 03:28
Smash some fruit in the parking lot Smoke cigarettes til' your lungs are shot. Hate the man and everything he stands for. Live for everything, live for now Close the door, and cry your fucking eyes out. Out on the coast I'm looking out at a big blue sea. And I can see you and I can see me And I can see regret, he's out there in the waves. Floating face down in the water, it was a hate filled crime, but he is not a martyr no he's not. And sometimes I hate this country. Sometimes I love it an awful lot. But really I think it's you people I really love all of you a lot. Sometimes I hate the way I dress sometimes I wish I would dress this way more. And you don't give a shit about the cause. But you like the way we poor our hearts on the floor. If you're not for justice and equality why don't you just leave now? Cause that's what we're all about. I'm about it. She's about it. He's about it, so, yeah. ONE TWO THREE FOUR

Watch Out 03:41
There's things in my chest I can't trace their origin. And at night I go outside and I yell into the sky. Crystallized, right in front of me are things I know I've lied about. Watch out for the wolf in the sheep skin coat. Watch out, for the ghosts that haunt my soul, watch out. (Chorus) Because I started feeling emotion in the dim glow of the street light and I took two or three out in the bar fight. And I am alone at this point in my life. I told you that I loved you and that you're an empiricist, and you agreed, but then you walked away from me. Watch out. (Chorus) And I'm hopelessly attached to you. And I've got nothing nothing to lose. So put on your shoes, and we'll walk right out the door. With our robot eyes and our glasses spilt on the floor I won't feel these things not anymore. Watch out. (Chorus)
